Warning: MoviePass

August 11th, 2006

This one is nasty. I know some of you guys already installed this in the past or even recently and it can/will make your life on the internet a living hell. It’s called MoviePass and some places you might see it mentioned as “moviepass.tv” and “MediaPipe”. Please read this and understand that this is to protect you from malicious programs.

To put it short, if you use the MoviePass trial service their software will be stuck on your PC until you pay them and if you don’t pay them you’re pretty fucked. However, help is on the way.

Much of the info I found on this are taken directly from:
